New Liverpool striker Rickie Lambert has been enjoying some downtime in Barbados alongside Hull City defender Alex Bruce.

The Liverpool squad returned to pre-season training on Monday, but the club's World Cup players, including Lambert, have been given some extra time off before rejoining their teammates.

Lambert, who jetted to Barbados with his wife Amy and their three children, was spotted on the beach with Bruce, who is also on the island with his other half Lucy and their daughter Ava, according to the Daily Mail.

Lambert is one of three Liverpool signings so far this summer, along with his former Southampton teammate Adam Lallana and German Under-21 international Emre Can.
